Movie description:
Merlin’s crystal and staff are rescued after battles both in the dark ages and in modern times. Ben moves to a new neighborhood. He’s pretty unhappy because he has moved away from all his friends and things don’t go well at his new school. He soon meets up with Nicole and things start to look up. His neighbor is Merlin and Ben becomes his apprentice. Many adventures follow and he gets his revenge on the school bullies as well as rescuing the staff and crystal. This entertaining movie is one of the better examples of this genre.
